Comments/contents: Development studies represents an important part of the history of Geography as an academic discipline. Expeditions and studies on colonies and occupied regions in today’s Global South were one of the basic pillars of Geographical scientific research and subsequent concepts. Until today geographical concepts, methods and narratives within development studies show continuities and discontinuities to these academic “traditions”.

Considering this historical background, we will work on central concepts of development and postcolonial studies and the basic critiques on them. Case studies and specific thematic issues will help to understand interwoven processes in the Global North and the Global South as well as structures of inequalities and power relations.
Learning objectives: The students will learn to question critically the historical background of development concepts and to analyze case studies or specific thematic with the help of texts, videos and schooling materials.
Didactic concept: The students will work in small groups on the different seminar topics. Less emphasis will be placed on pure "knowledge" than on critical debates and discussions. The theory-based discussions will always be illustrated with (current) case studies.
